| 2016-03-17 |
| [Planned Parenthood] Washington. DC -- Planned Parenthood Action Fund released the following statement today on news that the President will nominate Judge Merrick Garland, Chief Judge of the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit, to the Supreme Court to fill the vacancy left behind by Justice Antonin Scalia. "Judge Garland is an intelligent, highly accomplished judge who has secured bipartisan support in his previous appointments," Richards said in a statement. "Now that the President has upheld his constitutional duty, it is time for the Senate to uphold theirs. The American people deserve a full court and a justice appointed by the President they elected for four years -- not three. It is time for the Senate to do their job and give Judge Garland a fair hearing and up or down vote." |

| #8 Get used to it. More of this is coming. Think about President Hillary and Harry Reid in control of the Senate again. Or Trump - historically and recently he supports PP and abortion on demand, and gun control, so either way we are screwed. |

| #7 Did he reject their endorsement? Don't some folks consider PP murders? But not racist, I suppose. Who gets to decide which groups are worthy, which speech is free? |

| #5 And if the Democrats win the Senate (or Presidency), this will be the most moderate nominee that would be presented. Then you can stick a fork in us, we're done anyway. A moderate nominee won't matter at that point. |

| #4 ...by modern Democrat standards...Nazis are conservatives, even though they were the National Socialist Workers Party and very much socialists. Imagine if they think the Nazis were conservative where that places them on the political spectrum. Same with the concept of 'moderate'. |

| #2 Besoeker, by modern Democrat standards Garland is moderate. And competent. Consider some of the alternatives - e.g. Loretta Lynch. |

| #1 A Chicago born Harvardian, 'anti-gun' pro-abortion moderate? What am I missing about this guy ? |
